Hey Nick,

I saw those first.....actually I was going to tell you about the motors on 
ebay.  I emailed the vendor and he responded saying he had hundreds of these 
motors, all in like new condition, lightly used, only driven on Sundays by 
his Grandmother, etc.?????

The vendor did say he would sell multiple items at the winning bid price.

Lets not bid against each other.....try and keep the price down.....

My thoughts are if the 280W have plenty of power, the 250W motors should be 
adequate.  If they are a little weak.....just gear the motor down.....say to 
11:1 ratio.

My only slight concern is this vendor is brand new to ebay.....no track 
record.....no history.

Good luck wit your tank!
